64 Countries Mandate GMO Labeling

The US and Canada do NOT!

Join 1,400,000 Americans Who Are Demanding to Know What's in Their Food

Studies show that 93% of Americans support mandatory labeling of genetically engineered (GE) foods.

GE foods are labeled in 64 countries including the entire European Union. The U.S. is now one of the only developed countries in the world that doesn’t require labeling.

In 2014, 36 GE labeling bills were introduced in 20 states and experts are projecting the number to be as high or higher in 2015. While many state-level initiatives, including the recent one in Oregon, have been narrowly defeated under an avalanche of misleading advertisements, the handwriting is on the wall: Americans want GE food labeling, and will keep organizing until we get it.

That's why the Food Revolution Network is teaming up with a broad coalition of organizations in supporting the Center for Food Safety’s formal legal petition with FDA demanding that the agency mandate the nationwide labeling of GE foods.

Our coalition has gotten more than 1.4 million signatures so far. Please add your voice and send your comment to FDA and President Obama.

Help us reach the 2 million mark, and make mandatory federal GE labeling a reality in 2015!
